You guys are not understanding I think. I have used the Windows installation disc. That's not the issue. The issue is I can't use my keyboard, or any USB ports, so..yeah. That means I can't reinstall Windows because you need one, if not both of those things.

Ooooooooh. Yeah you made it sound like you were trying to install Windows from a flash drive which is an awful idea :)

Do you have a PS/2 keyboard? You could have borked your BIOS but if you can use a PS/2 keyboard it would be easier than actually having to mess with jumpers on the motherboard to reset them.

Yeah, I do not sadly. I was going to see if I could grab one at Walmart today but I'm not sure if they sell them or not.

Hehe good luck! Sometimes you can get lucky at BestBuy/Radioshack etc for a PS/2 to USB adapter.

Easiest way to reset the BIOS would be just to use that keyboard/adapter to get into it on boot and then just restore the factory settings. You can definitely do it without a keyboard as long as you are comfortable messing with jumpers on the motherboard :)

You can get a 7950 for around that if you look around. It's a pretty awesome card and comes with three pretty solid game. The 3GB of VRAM can be useful if you're playing a game with a lot of mods or playing at resolutions greater than 1080p or plan to in the future as well. As an added bonus, it's got quite a bit of overclocking headroom.

9000 series(skipping 8000 series altogether supposedly) from AMD is on the horizon in the near future too.

But yeah, the 760 is a solid card. I a 670(2, actually haha) and it's essentially a very similar card. Very good performer and it's quite a deal at that price-point.

Finally back in the States and (mostly) moved in :) Should be around for some Day Z fun and I see that SimCity finally put out the major transportation patch so I imagine I'll be on that a ton as well.

As far as the Origin bundle $5 is great for what is listed. I own more than half so I'm going to pass though.
